Got You

Tsunade's taijutsu moves were expansive and combined with her monstrous strength!

Meanwhile, Aoba, due to specific reasons, abandoned his graceful style of attack and, relying on his high offense and defense, initiated a head-on confrontation!

The last time, Aoba didn't give Tsunade a chance for a direct fight, but he made up for it this time.

As the battle progressed, Tsunade became increasingly alarmed because the opponent's strength and defense exceeded her expectations.

She had thought that the opponent was only fast. Still, upon engaging directly, she found that not only was his speed impressive, his strength was formidable, and his defense seemingly bottomless.

According to the information returned by Itachi, was this Yasuo primarily skilled in using a sword?!

And did he also possess a unique ability similar to Susano'o?!

Was this the same person?

Tsunade found it hard to believe, doubting whether the person before her was the Yasuo Itachi had described.

Initially, when she called out the name Yasuo, the opponent tacitly acknowledged it without objection.

This was genuinely baffling!

"Painful Kick!"

Aoba suppressed the urge to use enemy-breaking move, retreated, and then charged forward again as the ground shattered.

"Thunder Strike!"

"Paralysis Infusion!"

Using his speed advantage, although Tsunade managed to block his first strike with her arms crossed in front of her chest, the subsequent explosive force still blasted through her defenses, leaving her vulnerable.

Aoba then swiftly placed a palm below Tsunade's throat, infusing the "Collapse Point" into her acupuncture point, causing Tsunade to become paralyzed instantly!

Tsunade's right foot, which was about to kick, stiffened mid-air...

At that moment, Aoba had already clasped Tsunade's shoulders, lifted her, and, with a twist, flung her!

It was the original Shunpo that Aoba rarely used.

Including the Thunder Strike and Paralysis Infusion he had used before, there were a few moves that Aoba had never shown, meant for occasions like today.

As Tsunade spun head-down towards the ground, Aoba thought it the perfect moment for a Lotus technique!

Just as he thought this, a figure suddenly flashed, saving Tsunade from hitting the ground.

It was the very Guy he had been thinking of!

Unfortunately, Guy didn't follow up with...

And not just Guy but also Kakashi, Asuma, and Kurenai had arrived.

"Why are you all here?" Tsunade, having recovered from her paralyzed state, looked somewhat displeased.

She was caught off guard momentarily, and she hadn't expected the opponent to use an attack similar to the Hyuga's Gentle Fist.

Even though she wouldn't have been in real trouble if Guy hadn't saved her...

"Lord Jiraiya sent us because he was worried accomplices might be hiding in the shadows."

Before Guy could speak, Kurenai interjected.

Tsunade was wise. She knew that Jiraiya was concerned for her, so he had urgently summoned these few to aid her after she had left.

This left Tsunade feeling somewhat undermined, but because she had been slightly outmatched just now, she could not argue.

At this time, the others were overwhelmed by the "Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist" summoned by Aoba.

Seeing this, Tsunade snorted coldly and summoned the Katsuyu again, "You handle those puppets; leave this guy to me. Katsuyu, I'll leave the healing to you."

The Katsuyu nodded, knowing its acidic tongue could instantly kill an enemy, but the attack was too wide-ranging and risky amidst the chaos, making it difficult to act.

So it immediately split and spawned many small slugs to heal the injured ninjas.

This provided everyone with an infinite health regeneration buff!

Tsunade was no exception; a small slug quietly perched on her shoulder, and everyone received one, including Guy.

Guy seemed to have more to say, but Kakashi quickly covered his mouth and dragged him away, saying, "Let's leave this battlefield to Lady Tsunade; we have our tasks to handle."

Once everyone had left, Tsunade's expression finally relaxed.

She wasn't vain, but this guy had tricked her several times. Now that he was finally facing her directly, she wouldn't allow anyone else to interfere.

This was her pride!

Aoba also intended the same!

With her hands enveloped in dense chakra, Tsunade charged back into the fray, not allowing her opponent to strike her acupuncture points again.

With monstrous strength and the sharp chakra scalpel, Tsunade's lethal power was more than doubled!

However, regarding speed and agility, Aoba firmly held the upper hand.

No matter how strong the destructive power is, it's useless if it doesn't hit!

After dozens of exchanges, Aoba's eyes suddenly turned a fiery red.

"Shunko!"

Timing it perfectly, after leaving a shadow clone on the ground, Aoba instantly appeared behind Tsunade and landed a heavy punch on her back.

With the inherent super explosive power of "Shunko" combined with the explosion of the explosive release, Tsunade was severely injured, spitting a mouthful of fresh blood while still in the air.

However, under the treatment of the slugs, such injuries were almost completely healed by the time she landed.

This made Aoba marvel at the healing abilities of the Senju clan combined with the slugs; if Tsunade used the Hundred Healings technique, it wouldn't be any different from his painstakingly acquired "Super Regeneration Body!"

Tsunade didn't wipe the blood from her mouth, and her body suddenly began to tremble!

Fear?

No, it was a sign of her hemophobia possibly acting up again.

But Tsunade forcefully ignored these thoughts and immediately boosted her body's function to its prime state using the Yin Seal.

With a loud bang and intense air pressure, Tsunade, using her explosive power, instantly appeared in front of Aoba and threw a punch.

No tricks. If one punch can't kill me, then I'll kill you with one punch!

Her speed and power had grown so much...

A grave expression appeared in Aoba's eyes; if it hadn't been for the speed boost from "Shunko," he would have had difficulty dodging.

But... it wasn't enough!

Boom!

Seizing the opportunity, Aoba dodged Tsunade's attack and landed another punch on Tsunade's abdomen.

Tsunade inevitably spat out another mouthful of blood, and her abdomen was blown open, but this time, Tsunade used brute strength to stop her body's motion, then reached out and grabbed Aoba's left arm.

"Got you now. Let's see where you can run!"

Tsunade ignored her injuries, her eyes becoming even more fierce!
